Since we're on the topic, I've always been curious as a non-drinker - as an slightly-smaller-than-average 20 y/o drinking for the first time, if I were to suddenly decide I wanted some beer or cider, how many cans/units before I'd be drunk?

And what about something a lot stronger like vodka or whisky? Would going from never having drank to drinking whisky always be dangerous, or would it depend on how much you drank?

if your a first timer 4 will be absolutely enough after that slow it down build up your tolerance slowly when i first started drinking one can of budwieser and id be crying into everyones arms telling them i love them now 6years later i can drink 8-10 and only feel it slightly but max out at 20 pints

like 5 or 6 probably, but because you have barely had alcohol your limit will be super low, when i first had alcohol (beer) i was genuinely pissed after one can, but then ur tolerance just builds up and up, so ide say like 2 or 3 to you. Tbh you will feel it as your having it so just keep drinking till you feel slightly lightheaded and a bit zoned out, lol
